Jake Paul sets out terms for "historic" $200million fight with brother Logan

Jake Paul would need to agree not to let the feud go too far if he were to agree to put together a fight with his brother Logan.

The American duo are two divisive figures in the boxing world., as well as in their past lives as YouTube stars. They are known to wind up fans with their antics and cause controversy, which has led them to make millions in their fighting and social media careers thus far.

And it is generally believed that the pair could cash in for a massive money fight at any time if they decided to square up in the ring against one another. Logan is 0-1 as a professional, and has competed in two other fights, while Jake is 5-0 after winning his sole white collar bout in 2018.

But some feel that the big brother may still have a chance, despite his less-than-stellar record. He has gone the distance with Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition, and is the bigger fighter of the two.

"Me and my friends were talking about it the other day; that is the biggest money fight out there," Jake said during an appearance on the Flagrant podcast. "Logan and I talk about it all the time.

"Our parents don't want us to do it! They're like 'absolutely not, why would you do that?' The Klitschko brothers never fought, the Charlo brothers haven't fought and the list goes on.

"What me and Logan like to do is make history and do s*** differently, spin the narrative and for that reason I think the fight will one day happen."

However, the pair have history of feuding in the past, and it has gotten ugly at times. In 2017 they publicly had a rivalry over a number of YouTuber dramas, and despite at times seeming to be put-on, everyone around the situation insists to this day that it was all real.

Logan went as far as to allegedly bed his brother's ex-girlfriend Alissa Violet, before taunting him about it in a music video. So after patching things up, Jake is keen to make sure a new rivalry over fighting wouldn't be allowed to go too far and they could return to their friendship right after.

"Why not?" Paul continued. "If he's down, let's just say it's boxing, and anything can happen. If my own brother knocks me out, I'm perfectly fine with that.

"If I knock out him, which is more likely to happen because I love him but he's never won a fight, he would be the one that would have to accept that. I've been boxing for two years straight, now.

"Meanwhile, he's been doing his podcast, which I'm not hating on and he's crushing it, but I'm just saying I've been more dedicated to it. I would really want to sit down with him ahead of that and make sure we can come out of this peacefully.

"That's a slippery slope, I wouldn't want to go back to it, and it wouldn't be worth it if we couldn't both be civil regardless of the outcome. What I told my mom was that I want my kids to drive Mercedes-Benz' cars."
